I ran a cartech box on a gt-40 lower w/ j302 heads a "b" cam with a b trim Vortech and rci 1 3/4 long tubes in '92. Car was fast then, would be fun even now. Damn I want my old car back.
box didn't have much down low but came on like crazy on top. It complimented the blowers boost curve. Pulled to 6250 even with the b cam.

That thing looks sweet.Originally posted by Z06killinsbf View PostI answer my own question, find you a BXR intake. That'll make some people drool
I just did an image search. Does it make good power? Compared to new intakes?
I bet that is $$, and wtf distributor. Lol Sucks for belt slip.

You can't bleed enough exhaust gas to necessitate an A/R that's ~20% smaller. At some point you will turn it up, then what? Once the boost/backpressure ratio gets upwards of 1.7:1, you're done.Originally posted by majorownage View PostWhy run a higher a/r if you will be bleeding off most of the exhaust gasses with a wastegate?
I'm not talking about tons of boost... its an iron headed 5.0...
'tons of boost' and 'iron headed' mean squat... actually, less than squat.
Mike, You're reading the wrong articles if you're looking at breadboxes and tunnel rams.

You should consider a name change... maybe 'selfownage' would be appropriate. You do it in nearly every post.Originally posted by majorownage View PostWhy run a higher a/r if you will be bleeding off most of the exhaust gasses with a wastegate?
I'm not talking about tons of boost... its an iron headed 5.0...When the government pays, the government controls.
